Yes, I share your thoughts and pain. And as a word of advice, all your wonderful memories, with the way he has impacted your life, and taught you so much, take some time, in a quiet place and write all of those thoughts and feelings down on paper. You can do it over multiple nights. It will help you cope with the sadnes and grief and will allow you to vent in a positive fashion.
I did this, and when the time came to lay my father to rest I got up and shared all of my thoughts and feelings about the most amazing man in my life with everyone at his funeral. And many people were truly Moved by my thoughts and feelings I shared. I didn't think I would have the strength to, but I did and it felt so good to honor him.
I left the letter/notes in his casket. And man I miss that man more everyday. Please be strong and I will pray for you my friend
